Question 1

Does Curodont Repair actually work?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Curodont Repair has a clinical success rate above 90% for arresting and reversing early non-cavitated carious lesions, compared to around 34% with fluoride varnish alone. It has been used in over 200,000 dental procedures worldwide with no reported adverse events.

Question 2

How much does Curodont cost in London?

Accepted Answer

Curodont Repair is a private dental treatment priced per tooth. Please contact Smile Cliniq directly for current pricing. As a guide, the cost is typically significantly lower than a conventional filling and the long-term savings from avoiding fillings, crowns, or root canals can be substantial.

Question 3

Is Curodont Repair painful?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. Curodont Repair is completely pain-free. There are no needles, no drilling, and no anaesthesia required. The formula is tasteless and non-staining. Most patients feel nothing during the application.

Question 4

How long does Curodont Repair treatment take?

Accepted Answer

The full in-chair application takes 8 - 10 minutes and can usually be completed during a routine dental check-up. Enamel regeneration then continues naturally over the following 4 - 6 months as saliva delivers minerals to the treated area.

Question 5

Why is Curodont not available on the NHS?

Accepted Answer

Curodont Repair is a relatively new biomimetic treatment and is currently classified as a private procedure in the UK so it is not available on the NHS. Many patients find it an excellent value compared to the long-term cost of fillings, replacements, and more complex restorations like crowns.

Question 6

Can Curodont Repair fix a full cavity?

Accepted Answer

No. Curodont Repair is designed for early-stage, non-cavitated carious lesions. This is decay that has not yet broken through the enamel surface. Once a cavity has fully formed, a conventional filling or restoration is required. This is why early detection at routine check-ups is so important.

Question 7

How will I know if I need Curodont Repair?

Accepted Answer

Your dentist will identify candidates for Curodont Repair during a routine check-up, using visual examination and X-rays. Signs include white spot lesions, early interproximal lesions, or areas of demineralisation. If you have been told you have 'early decay' or 'watch areas', ask whether Curodont Repair is appropriate.

Question 8

Is Curodont Repair safe for children?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Curodont Repair is safe and suitable for patients of all ages, including children and teenagers. It is fluoride-free, completely pain-free, and requires no drilling. This makes it particularly well-suited to younger patients and those who are nervous about dental treatment.

Question 9

Is Curodont so expensive?

Accepted Answer

Curodont Repair is competitively priced as a private treatment. When weighed against the ongoing cost of fillings (which typically need replacing every 5 - 15 years) and more complex restorations such as crowns or root canal treatments, many patients consider it excellent long-term value.
